Current compilers lack precise timing models guiding their built-in optimizations. Hence, compilers apply ad-hoc heuristics during optimization to improve code quality. One of the...
Abstract. Silicon chip design has passed a threshold whereby exponentially increasing transistor density (Moore’s Law) no longer translates into increased processing power for si...
In this paper we show how high-level UML models of mobile computing applications can be analysed for classical performance measures such as throughput. The approach proceeds by co...

Although aspect-oriented programming (AOP) is becoming widely used, the design of the pointcut language and the generic and reusable description of advice are still research topic...
Abstract. To produce a program guaranteed to satisfy a given specification one can synthesize it from a formal constructive proof that a computation satisfying that specification...
